More often than not, those who complain the most about their memory remember better than the rest. The 14th World Champion solved Bareev and Levitov's riddles hands down , as they had chosen little-known and dusty games from Vladimir's career. But Kramnik remembered all of them.
A whitewash it was! 28-1 in Vladimir Borisovich's favour! Watch and learn...
Kramnik not only remembered each move in every game, but also the place, the year, the opponent, and even more importantly, the circumstances in which each game was played.
He remembers how Gelfand didn't allow him to mate him beautifully in Berlin in 1996, he heard the loud ovation at the Palace of Congresses at the Kremlin when he destroyed Kasparov in rapid in Moscow at the Intel Grand Prix in 1994. He savors his victory against Ivanchuk in his first Linares in 1993, his breakthrough on the most-defended square against Ipatov at the Team World Championship in 2013, his putting his bishop en prise against Vocaturo at the 2016 Olympiad, which left the then team captain Andrey Filatov shell-shocked... The career of this immense player is right here, before your eyes!
"If I could now calculate like I did before, I would fight against Carlsen..." noticed Kramnik philosophically, admiring the powerful and scintillating chess he was able to demonstrate.
You still haven't seen anywhere such challenges given to World Champions!
